The city is overrun with wonks, all of whom seem to be drawn to DC's favorite beer-swilling, answer-hurling ritual: the pub quiz. As bars across the city cash in on your inner (or outer) nerd, be sure to check out the list below for some prime pub quiz spots. Suggestions welcome via the comments or the tip line. (photo)

Congratulations, Mr. Jason Holland! You've answered the GridskipperTrivia question correctly and a Wonka bar should be winging its way to you as you read this. Last week we asked, "Where is Charlie from the original Charlie and the Chocolate Factory?" No, he will not be on hand at the opening of the Willy Wonka theme park in Amsterdam. Peter Ostrum, (pictured above) the actor who played Charlie, is a veterinarian in upstate New York sporting a sweet handlebar 'stache. I guess operating on goat goiters beats everlasting gobstoppers any day of the week.
